Distribution of values in a folder distribution-values-folder

The distribution of values helps to know the percentage of a value in a column within a table.

To know the distribution of values in a folder, proceed as below :

For example, among the deliveries, we want to know the distribution of values of the Channel column.

To get this information, go to the Deliveries folder and click on Configure columns icon.

In the Configure columns window, click on the Information icon of the column you want to know. Then, click on the Distribution of values button.

{modal="regular"}

You will get the percentage of the values in the Channel column.

{modal="regular"}

NOTE
For columns with many values, only the first twenty values will be displayed. A notification Partial load will warn you.

You can also have the distribution of values of a link.

In the attributes list, click the + button next to the desired link, as shown below. This adds the link to the Output columns. You can have now the Information icon, allowing you to view the distribution of its values. If you do not want to keep the link in the Output columns, make sure to click on the Cancel button.

{modal="regular"}

It is also possible to have the distribution of values in a query modeler. Learn more here.

Filter the values filter-values

By using the Advanced filters in the distribution of values window, you can filter your results based on specified conditions.

In the example of the delivery list above, which shows the distribution per channel, you can, for instance, filter it to display only the deliveries which status is Finished.
